About The Author
Jonathan Clay
Jonathan Clay has become one of the best known transport artists in the UK. He has produced over 1100 paintings and drawings, of which over 730 are of his well-known and widely-acclaimed ‘Locomotive Portraits’. His pictures now hang on homes, railway buildings, and museums all over the world. In the 1950s and 1960s, he was an enthusiastic train- and bus-spotter, and began to draw and paint seriously. In the mid 1970s he held exhibitions of his work in Lancashire, and even had a display of motor racing paintings on show at the Donington Park Racing car museum, in 1979.
